"This isn't some sick obsession - it's love. Real love. The kind that consumes you, the kind that makes you reckless. She doesn't see it yet. The way her soul calls to mine, the way her eyes burn holes through my control. Millie was never supposed to matter. She was supposed to be just another stranger in the crowd, another face I'd forget within seconds. But I knew better. Now I can't stay away. I canrt breathe when she's not near. And when someone tries to hurt her... I become something else entirely. Something darker. They'd call it madness. I'd call it devotion. Because when it comes to her, there's nothing I wouldn't do - no line I wouldn't cross, no sin I wouldn't commit - to keep her safe. Even if it means burning the world to the ground... or taking away what she cherishes the most." ⚠ : trigger warning : dark romance. please read the trigger warnings.

(Completed) Two assassins were set to kill a girl. No questions asked. Just kill her and claim their prize. That was their mission. Except one of them was not supposed to visit Volney, the land of the dead and the other fall in love with a girl and totally forget about his mission to kill. For an heir who had dedicated her entire life for her kingdom, fate was not kind. Her sister should have returned home after her visit to her aunt's place. Her kingdom must have been safe, both terrestrial and by sea. But does anything ever goes planned? As a general, she must now decide. Kingdom or family? Suffice to say, slavery was the safest option for a bride. Hated by the king's daughter, she wonders what she had ever done in her life to deserve her hate. With her friend of fifteen years gone to join the rebellion, and without realising what it would cost her, she makes new friends. But would they keep her alive? Or would they sell her for their life? Friendships will be tested. Foes will become allies. Hunted will become the Hunter. And lover will become the betrayer. Not edited! Cover made by @Shadowsleek
